Really nice shoe and a step up from the original classic. I was excited to wear them but when they arrived they were very narrow. The classic comes in different widths but sadly, this shoe does not so I returned them.

Very comfortable lining. Not as supportive as I would have liked, but definitely more than the standard Sperry shoes.

Appeared to be darker on the top of the toe than on the rest of the shoe.

It is a beautiful shoe that is well made. I gave it only 4 stars because it seems to be a little shorter than most 9.5 shoes and the leather, while of excellent quality, is very stiff. I'm sure it will soften over time, but initially it makers the shoe somewhat uncomfortable.

A little more narrow than I was expecting. But overall good quality.

I have been wearing these shoes for over 50 years. I buy one pair about every 10 years I would've given them a five star review but I couldn't get a 9 1/2 wide size. I had to go with a 10 which makes the shoe just a tad bit big for my foot.

Not as good as they used to be. I don't like the half insoles because the get unglued and goes up and becomes uncomfortable

The inner cushion (which is the only reason I buy these shoes) appears to be a little thinner than those that I've bought in the past. Not quite as comfortable as I was expecting.

Very comfortable.
Fit - I recommend going 1 size above what you normally where for a street shoe.

I use these primarily for house slippers because they are comfortable, soft, and don't squeak on my wood floors. They are minimalist, not built more heavily like other boat mocs I have which I use for daily wear outside or on my boat. I like the 2 islet shoes as I can slip them on and off without tying. I never wear socks in the summer and the 2 pairs of tan Gold Cups I have are very soft and comfortable but the brown pair I have chafe the tops of my feet because they have a label sewn into the underside of the tongue of the shoe. The tan pairs have the label printed, not sewn. Unfortunately, I cannot wear the brown pair regularly without socks because they irritate the top of my foot. I would give my Gold Cups with the printed label 5 stars for my purposes and the pair with the sewn-in label 3 stars or less, hence the 4-star rating above.
Note: There is a 1/2 length piece of leather in the footbead by the heel that always comes unglued at the seam

I looked at dozens of boat shoes, always came back to this pair. Timeless classic. Easy on and off. Soft inside and out, perfect for going sockless. I’m borderline wide, should possibly have gotten the EE but they’re quite tough to find in my size.

I've owned several pairs of the Gold Cup shoes and love them. However, they have full removable insoles, which are great for cleaning and drying out. Your
new model no longer has removable insoles. Please!!! Bring them back in the Gold Cup line. Premium shoes deserve them!

Very comfortable and looks cool. 1 star deducted because the end of the lining inside the shoe lifted off causing the glue to stick to the balls of the feet - very irritating.

Very soft leather... which is like wearing a slipper. Not a bad deal, but I think I am probably more in favor of a bit stiffer leather for a 'working shoe', so would not purchase the Gold Cup series the next time around. Also, the grommets have come out where the wrap around lace is fed through the top of the shoe edge. I presume this is also due to the soft leather (i.e. the grommet was crimped well, so I am guessing the leather is just a little too soft to retain the grommet). However, if you are looking for a very soft/comfortable shoe, this fits that description very well!

Excellent! High quality, fast shipping, perfect fit. But I have to say I liked the originals better.

Nice look and super comfy at first, but edge of the thin leather sole by the ball of the foot keeps letting go. I've had 3 or 4 pair of these, and I Never wear without a thin sock, but that hasn't prevented the thin leather sole from letting loose and rolling up when I remove the shoe. Super annoying and uncomfortable. Not going to buy any more of these.

Super comfortable shoe. The only issue I have is the interior liner is in two pieces and will separate

They feel a half size too small. Short in length and tighter in width than they should be. I am giving them a hall pass because as topsiders they will definitely get wet and will stretch. The leather is nice and soft and more comfortable than other topsiders I have owned.

Just bought my second pair! My first pair are two years old and still kicking. My only qualm with the new pair is, they seem to be made of a softer leather. The concern is that they will not last as long, or wear as well as my first pair. That is yet to be determined. Though they are the same model, I think they look slightly different too, due to the softer leather. They fit the same and the cushion is the same. They are my go to shoe. Thanks!

all good as expected. Right shoe a bit tight on width - but my right foot is wider. Some boot stretch and all is well

Already had the gold cup in blue and grey. This leather is much stiffer, decreasing the comfort that I found immediately in the other colors. Hopefully it will become more supple with time
